the busted fuse you have...is it just separated or black
usually if its separated it's an over-current situation
usually if it's black it's a ground out somewhere

What fuse is "like" a relay? Either it IS a relay, or it is NOT a relay.

Also, where is the fusible link you are talking about? I am lost.......

BTW, fuses do not blow w/o reason at the same time you wire something. Thats like saying "I missed 5th the other day and shifted into 1st, coincidentally a valve failed and fell into the piston, isn't that weird?"

i was just thinking....you have an obd2a car....you now have the right conversion harness (obd2a to obd1 correct)? but yet you still have the dizzy wired for obd1 as well correct?...hmmm i thought when you use those conversion harnesses there is no need to rewire the dizzy too....sum1 correct me if i'm wrong
the swaps i've seen were from same year and always vtec so i'm prolly wrong here
also...where along the harness does this fuse go...close to the ecu or firewall cuz i've done a couple cars and i don't remember seeing a fuse or fusible link along an EK harness before

Yeah, i am using the correct ecu harness. I am using the OBD1 dizzy because i found one for a good deal. So i repinned it for OBD2 due to how simple it was to do. and I've reched my wiring twice. It has to be somethnig to due with my ingition ("rywire") .

There's an underdash harness as you all know runs from my ignition switch to the relay. there's a harness that breaks off of that harness and runs underneath the Under hood fuse box. one Plug Connects in to the "IG1" Ignition fuse.

Did you ever diagnose why the main relay is not powering up the fuel pump? Is the fuel pump still jerry rigged w/ a switch? Shoudn't you repair a KNOWN problem before you get ahead of yourself?

#1 repair: Sell it and buy a Honda. Ohh, you already have a Honda.....guess your screwed

well i hoped you did the right thing and disconnect the battery first before any services were done. but did you have anything on when the battery was disconnected....maybe the ignition was on when it was re-connected it might cause a spike in the current real quick in order to pop the fuse. **** fuses have popped from getting a jump-start or hooked up to battery chargers
wierder **** has happened
